    It's so similar to the GF it's not funny. It's almost as though the umpires have an earpiece and someone is telling them to pay a free to the bull@@@@dogs when we look at getting the upper hand.

      ABC radio saying that the rule was that you can rush a behind within so many metres of the goal line - they're saying it was explained last week...the decision was wrong

        I actually respect that (at least on the TV) the Dogs supporters have given up booing Zak Jones

          He handballs it straight over the boundary with no player within cooee and still no free. This is absurd.

                  If he does he'll be fined. Coaches not allowed to comment on umpiring

                    The free kick count is now 31-18, the bias is so obvious it is insulting.

                      We were never going to be allowed to win this.

                        Must be grand at the moment to live in a delusional bubble where the umpires duly deliver whatever you want, when you need it........right on cue. I fu**ing hate umpires. On a brighter note, a lot to like about our Swannies tonight, when we get some better players back and the new boys, who were great and some 'never say die' attitude. Proud of them! Just don't mention umpires.........

                            We always knew what the outcome would be. It's pleasing to know that the umpires had to intercede in a big way to make it happen.

                            Some of our senior players were disappointing, but the kids were great. I think we probably should have kept Foote and dropped Fox, although he did play we. He was a bit too cautious and had some good opportunities to take responsibility. Easy to see why Hayward was picked. I thought he was great.

                              The Umpiring was terrible, but the Dogs are more skilful , more composed , find space so easily and make fewer errors and clangers.
